Technically, yes—and you may have some successful growth—but this isn’t the ideal way to fill in sparse areas. By clearing leaves and debris, amending the soil, and aerating it properly before you lay the seeds, you’re providing the most ideal conditions for them to germinate.

If maintained correctly, natural grass should last between five and 15 years, or up to several decades, depending on your home’s climate conditions. You can extend your grass’ lifespan by treating it well, including regular mowing, weeding, watering, and preventative pest control. Consider hiring a local lawn care service to provide everything your grass needs to live a long, healthy life.

Liquid aeration products are generally safe for pets and children when used according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once the liquid has dried on the lawn, it poses minimal risk. However, as a precaution, keep pets and children off the treated area until it has dried completely, which usually takes a few hours. This helps ensure their safety while allowing the product to work effectively in improving your lawn's health.

Many factors can cause your yard to have lawn depressions. Here are the most common reasons: 

• Heavy rainfall 

• Wild animals such as moles, voles, and groundhogs that burrow and tunnel

• Poor drainage

• Buried items such as pipes that break down

• Decaying tree roots or stumps

• Soil that has compacted

• Improper mowing techniques

• Driving heavy equipment and vehicles through the yard
